• JongHae Keum, Fake Projective Planes I

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

         Speaker JongHae Keum KIAS Fake projective planes (abbreviated as FPPs) are 2-dimensional complex manifolds with the same Betti numbers as the projective plane, but not isomorphic to it. FPPs can be uniformized by a complex 2-ball. In other words, they are ball quotients having the minimum possible Betti numbers. The existence of such

  • JongHae Keum, Mori Dream Surfaces of General Type with pg=0

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

         Speaker JongHae Keum KIAS (This is a part of Seminars on Algebraic Surfaces and Related Topics.) The Cox ring of a variety is the total coordinate ring, i.e., the direct sum of all spaces of global sections of all divisors. When this ring is finitely generated, the variety is called Mori dream (MD).

  • JongHae Keum, Fake quadric surfaces

    B236-1 IBS, Korea, Republic of
    Algebraic Geometry Seminar

        Speaker JongHae Keum KIAS A smooth projective complex surface S is called a Q-homology quadric if it has the same Betti numbers as the smooth quadric surface. Let S be a Q-homology quadric. Then its cohomology lattice is of rank 2, (even or odd) unimodular. By the classification of surfaces, S is either
